Materials and Specifications
The replica Sea-Dweller 126600 is typically built from 316L stainless steel, which provides solid corrosion resistance and a substantial feel on the wrist. The bezel insert is ceramic, offering scratch resistance and a deep black finish. The crystal is sapphire, and the Cyclops lens magnifies the date for easy reading. Inside, you'll find an automatic movement—often a 2836-2 or 2824 clone—that delivers reliable timekeeping with a date function and a power reserve of around 38 to 40 hours. The case measures 43mm in diameter, with a thickness of approximately 15mm and a lug width of 22mm, matching the original's proportions.
